We've also gotten to spend some time visiting with friends we have here. We've visited with Jovanny, a lady who lives down the street. She owns a salon, so we just go sit in her salon and spend time talking with her and praying with her. She's at a difficult time in her life and has many questions about Christianity, so she was in need of some encouragement. I'm glad that God used us to talk to her in that moment. We might go back and visit so that she can do my hair - she wants to cut it or color it, but I think we might just have it rolled! :)
We also got to visit with Celanda and her family. She's a pastor that we've worked with before. She opened her home up to us so that we could spend time with her - sharing stories and talking about this past year. She also fed us beans and rice! Sam and I weren't even hungry - in fact, we were actually still full from lunch - but we couldn't turn down a Dominican meal!
Michael is being loved on by everyone! Everyone loves the "rubio" - blonde-haired boy! He's not too fond of random people coming up and trying to grab him, but he's always up for giving a high-five! It's his way of communicating friendship! He's learned a few more words in Spanish - hola, gracias, adios! This is in addition to what he already knows - buenas noches, hasta manana, all his body parts! It's so fun to see him learning 2 languages! This has been a great experience for him!
Thanks for praying for us! We're here for one more week! We're headed to the beach tomorrow to spend a night with our friend Boz (the worship leader that flew in last week) and then back to San Juan for a couple more days. We haven't decided yet if Sam and I will go to the beach again as a family or not...We'll keep you posted!
